Topic #: 3
[All LEED-AP-ID+C Questions]

A project has performed an energy model which has resulted in the following energy end use consumption:

To meet the requirements for Energy and Atmosphere Credit, Advanced Energy Metering, Option 2. Advanced Metering, energy meters must be installed for energy end uses in

Show Suggested Answer Hide Answer
Suggested Answer: C

The LEED v4 criteria for the Energy and Atmosphere Credit, Advanced Energy Metering, Option 2 requires advanced energy metering for all whole-building energy sources as well as for any individual energy end uses that account for 10% or more of the total annual consumption of the building. From the provided energy end-use consumption data, it is clear that space cooling, interior fans, and receptacles each represent more than 10% of the total energy consumption. Additionally, interior lighting and space heating together also account for a significant portion of the energy consumption. Hence, to meet the credit requirements, advanced metering must be installed for all these categories, aligning with option C.

I’m leaning towards Option C, but I’m not entirely confident about whether receptacles are necessary for this credit.

I feel like we practiced a question similar to this, and I think it had to do with including receptacles in the metering.

I think Option D makes the most sense since it includes all the major categories of energy use, but I could be wrong.

I remember we discussed the importance of metering for different energy uses, but I'm not sure if we covered all the options in detail.
